Mojo Monday #300

Hello and Welcome!  Today I would love to share my entry for the Mojo Monday #300 Blog Celebration.  I really enjoy making card entries when I can for Mojo Monday and I wanted to say CONGRATS on hitting 300!  Can't wait for more challenges :)

I made this card using the Buzz and Bumble paper pack from Close to my Heart and two great stamps - For Every Occasion and a previous stamp of the month Friendship Bouquet.  I used the Artiste cart to cut the banner shape and hand cut the rest.  The flower was stamped with Cocoa ink and colored in using Honey, Autumn Terracotta, and Olive markers.  It is embellished with Opaques Mocha Gems and Chocolate grosgrain ribbon.

Thank You For Stopping By!!

Mojo Monday # 299

Hello Friends!  Thank you for stopping by to check out my Mojo Monday card.  This card was made using the Surf's Up paper pack from Close to my Heart and features two great stamp sets that are only available for the month of June.

 The "Thank You" stamp set is from a really wonderful promotion from Close to my Heart that takes place from May 30, 2013 to June 30, 2013.  When you purchase this stamp set, 100% of the profit will be donated to the American Red Cross to aid tornado victims in Oklahoma.  This stamp set will be available again in the Autumn/Winter 2013 Idea Book but was released early just for this promotion.  Make sure you get one (or more) and help out a great cause!

I wanted to use the Surf's Up paper pack because it coordinates great with the June Stamp of the Month  A Flowering Bunch.  This beautiful stamp features images that are great to use with our exclusive inks marker sets or watercolor pencils.  You can make this stamp set yours for only $5 with a $50 purchase or by itself for $17.95.  Hurry, this stamp set is only available for a few more days!

To make this card, I stamped the "Thank You" image onto a 2" piece of White Daisy card stock that I cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge.  Then I inked the edges with ink.  I stamped the flower image and two leaves onto White Daisy and added some color.  For the leaves, I used Ponderosa Pine markers and alternated with the lighter color.  For the flower, I used the Sorbet ink pad and the alcohol blending marker to create light and dark points in the flower.  The circle shape was cut at 2 1/2" from the Artiste cartridge using chocolate card stock and the base was made from a 5" x 10" piece and folded.

Mojo Monday 266

Happy Friday!!  Well, I finally had some time to complete a new Mojo Monday card.  When I found out about this blog, I told myself that I was going to participate every Monday.  Well, that obviously didn't happen.  The Mondays seem to just fly by and I always miss one, then another, then another.  But I got it together this week and came up with a card that I really like and I hope you like too.

This card was made with mostly Close To My Heart products.  The paper that I used is from the Stella Paper pack with a little Champagne paper from the Clementine Paper pack.
The other supplies I used are:
 Burlap Ribbon,
Inked the edges and stamped the sentiments with the Chocolate ink pad,
Colored the little birds with the darker color from the Sky marker set,
Cut the flower from the Artiste Cart, the circle from Art Philosophy, and cut the scalloped circle from the craft room.
I used the Life Is Tweet stamp on the front and the For Every Occasion - Occasions stamp for the inside.
I then finished it off with some pearls.

Feel free to tell me what you think:)
Hopefully I will have another card to show you next week!
